"Warriors' Woes: Stephen Curry's 60-Point Effort Goes to Waste Again"

Stephen Curry's 60-point performance in a loss to the Atlanta Hawks has sparked a debate on whether NBA scoring has become too easy, with multiple players achieving 60-point games in the past two weeks. Despite Curry's exceptional scoring abilities, concerns have been raised about the impact of one-sided rules and officiating that favor offensive players and hinder defenders. While Curry's scoring feats are undeniably impressive, the ease of high scoring may be diminishing the significance of historic performances and affecting the perception of great scorers in the league.

Bristol Motor Speedway's Dirt Race Weekend: Schedule, Weather, and Behind-the-Scenes Access.

NASCAR teams are moving closer to a day when a crew chief doesn’t have to be at the track for a race or even a weekend. This weekend’s race on the dirt at Bristol would have been a good time to have done so, but no Cup teams plan to purposely keep their crew chiefs at home. NASCAR made changes to the Rule Book on Thursday after the confusing actions by the National Motorsports Appeals Panel in separate appeals recently. Cautions are down 28.1% this year compared to this time last season.

NASCAR Implements New Appeal Rules After Recent Penalties.

NASCAR has changed its rule book to prevent appeal panels from removing points penalties after Hendrick Motorsports had its points penalty rescinded last week. The new wording means appeal panels can still overturn NASCAR penalties if they believe the accusations have no merit. But they must keep all facets of a penalty in place if they believe a penalty is warranted. Hendrick can still hope to use the old loophole if it appeals the Richmond penalties, however.
